"NEW STREETS."
(25 & 26 Vic , cap. 102, clause 77.)
In last year's Report I referred to the required Legislalative
powers to enable the Vestry to take action in regard
to improvements to be made in "Private (and neglected)
Roads," the present Report (to 25th March last,) is
not of a sufficiently advanced date to admit of an account of
such works having been actually executed, but I may venture
so far to anticipate the current year's doings, by stating that
at the time of inditing these particulars, No. 17 of this class
of Roads and Streets have been surveyed, and notices for payment
served on the owners of the respective properties ; and
also that No. 7 of these Roads have been already thoroughly
made up and completed, much to the satisfaction of the
inhabitants and the improvement of their respective localities;
and I beg to express a hope that before the publication of the
current year's Report the entire of the above Seventeen
Streets and Roads (with others in a like condition) will have
been transformed from their present neglected condition, to
that becoming the neighbourhood and Parish in which they
are situated.
ROAD IMPROVEMENTS
Have been made at Dulwich Common, leading towards the
Railway Bridge, by the widening of that part of the Road
from the diverted portion made by the Railway Company to
the Common.
